PLAGUE -- A Comic Jam

[Yubi Shines]

Here we go again.

Let's lay down some ground rules:
1: You contribute 1-2 pages at a go, then pass it on to the next person.

2: You keep things coherent. Random plotlines get old extremely fast.

3: Do not say you'll post the next page unless you are certain you are going to get one up, or you'll make people wait unnecessarily.

4: This one will be unique to this Jam, but I'm putting it in to as an experiment. Only original characters. You cannot put in your pre-made characters. You cannot put in your pre-made characters with transparent re-tools to pretend they are original. In every single Jam in the past, even when they were good, everyone made their personal character into a Mary-Sue and tried to pull the plot their way. I did it, you did it, everyone did it. Let's try and make this a story.

5: Try not to create too many characters at once. Introduce one or two at a time. A glut of new characters makes things hard to follow, especially when keeping up with people's different art styles.

6: MSPaint, Photoshop, sprites, pencils, pen, the medium you do a page doesn't matter. At the very least -- very least -- make the text readable.

Roger? Roger. Okay, on with the show.



You read right -- ZOMBIE PLAGUE SLASHER COMIC.
Whether you want to make this a bloodfest, a conspiracy, a satire, it's up to you.
Who's next?

[ASR]

The last one was about zombies...

[Yubi Shines]

I don't remember what goes on seven months ago. I don't even remember what happens seven hours ago. At any rate, it's a BRAND NEW DAY. BRAND NEW DAY!

[Chron]

Oh, great. Zombies.
I'll be doing something that's worth more than 1EXP a pop.

[ASR]

I'm adding raptors later. Just a heads up. I don't care when or how, there will be raptors.

[Chron]

Urge to make the main character Grant Alan rising...

[preventerWIND]

I'm next in line.

[Orange Devil]

Robots pl0x?

It looks like there is going to be one character against every kind of enemy imaginable.

[Snare]

Just letting you know, if I get my grubby hands on this, it'll be ridiculous a la PBnJ.

Seriously, happy go lucky CJs are the best.

[Orange Devil]

Yeah. There better be some comedy.

[Yubi Shines]

I ain't saying NO COMEDY NEVER EVER GRRRRR DIE. I'm saying the "pikachu beartrap cowbell laser hippo" kind of random is retarded and is only funny for the first five seconds. Funny can be coherent.

[ASR]

I'm derailing the whole thing when my turn comes. Not plotwise, but genre-wise.

[Chron]

What's the status on the turn roster, Yubi?
I'm not going to attempt going until I see more stuff.

[Orange Devil]

I agree with you Yubi. Comedy is fine. Pikachu laser hippo blah blah blah isn't comedy, its the kind of thing that Family Guy fans put together when they can't think of anything funny.

[ASR]

Agreed.

[preventerWIND]

I had one ready.. but then I saw the robot post.. so.. I remade it and..

GIANT ROBOT INSERTION.

[ASR]

99% of us can't draw giant robots.

[Orange Devil]

Yes! Thank you. Robots for the win. Now let's see who can draw that.

[ASR]

1% of us.

[Chron]

It's a neat idea.

But a giant robot is a little overkill on zombies, don't you think?
1 EXP per pop.

[Orange Devil]

1% of us.

There are currently 39 members. You do the math. Someone's going to have to pull of some excorsist #### here.

[preventerWIND]

Who said it was giant? Well. I did. So... I'll edit my post, now you can make the defender of the human race 1 foot tall.

[Yubi Shines]

It could be human-sized for all we know. There's nothing standing by the robot to show any scale. >_>!

Robots, raptors, and undead, oh my.

[Chron]

Idea...

1% of us.

There are currently 39 members. You do the math. Someone's going to have to pull of some excorsist #### here.

1% of 39 is 0, man.

[ASR]

I demand that whoever writes the next page make the robot smaller than a fingernail.

[preventerWIND]

Genius. We shall call the robot E-normo.

[Chron]

"Of course, our funds were somewhat... limited."

[ASR]

1% of 39 is 0, man.

ZERO OF US, YOU SAY? That means Winduh is one of THEM!

[ChaosVortex]

I'll probably pounce on this jam when the time is right. I might do something funny(ish) like last time.

Until then, let's make it good, kay?

[Chron]

1% of 39 is 0, man.

ZERO OF US, YOU SAY? That means Winduh is one of THEM!

He's just a null-pointer error.
Let's ignore him with an explicit type-cast.

[Yubi Shines]

Well, who's up next? I've been drawing literally all day, and I'm a bit done for now.

[Snare]

I'd do it if my brother left the tablet here. Disregarding what I said earlier, I do think I could make a pretty decent addition to the plot.

[Lunchebox]

I'll do it next, since I'm going to add in Ninja vampires.

[ASR]

No, add in ninjas, and vampires... seperately.

[Orange Devil]

Woah woah, are we getting  a que? There should be a rule against that.

[Chron]

You mean a queue? Queues are the best way to handle this.

[Yubi Shines]

This is starting to become some weird version of The Day The Saucers Came. And we're just two pages in.

Not that I'm complaining.

[Lunchebox]

Woah woah, are we getting  a que? There should be a rule against that.

No one else has actually taken the spot, so I did.

I'm also adding something else.

[Johncarllos]

I DON'T TAKE KINDLY TO VANDALS IN MY STOOOOOOOORE!!!!!

Just came to mind...

[Mikero]

I hate drawing.

You fatsos are giving me ideas and that's a problem because I have finals that I suck at to do!

[Lunchebox]

That's how we roll, Mikero!

Also, I'm NOW starting to draw the thing.

Posted on:  3 December 2007, 04:43:18

Screw it, I don't feel like drawing it anymore.

[ASR]

You are a sinister man, Lunche, and I can't say hate it.

[Johncarllos]

Well, Mike,you can join it when it starts to decline and you fix up the whole thing.

[Chron]

Then I'll dash it back to hell.

[Orange Devil]

All in favor of cutting back on the discussion? Just so that we can find the comics easier.

[Yubi Shines]

I could just link to each new comic page in a list on the top post.

Although that won't work if people attach the pages instead of host them themselves. Hmm. Maybe I'd just link the post itself in that case.

[Orange Devil]

Dooooooo IT!

[Yubi Shines]

meh I'll do it when there's more than one page of thread. Too lazy.

Here's the next comic, introducing two characters plus one more. Zed is Urban Dead slang for a zombie, by the by.

Also, goggles are awesome.

[Captain Sanoguchi]

Can I add Pikachu in? ^_^

[preventerWIND]

Looks great Yubi. And if the 99% of you want to know how the robot looks with better detail, heres a little sketch. Whoever wants to make the gun look different, go ahead, I never really liked the look I drew..
